Comments on Camera Control for Wear OS for Android
★★★★☆Godfrey Allen· Feb 26, 2020
Bought this app a couple of hours ago and was playing around with it It seems to work well on my tic watch pro and OnePlus however there is one draw back I have seen so far it needs gesture control like the twisting of your wrist to take a pic or start a video recording also the option to show the camera image on the phone screen if needed. Otherwise it works for me.
★★★★★Mike N· Apr 27, 2021
Love it, works surprisingly well. Can say that following the instructions regarding the payment (buy on phone, wait half a day, install on watch) worked perfectly, no problems at all.
★★★★★Henry Klassen· Jan 22, 2019
Works as advertised. I am very happy with this app on my Tic Watch Pro. Well worth the price!
★☆☆☆☆Wayno Guerrini· Jul 28, 2022
If you were hoping for a remote camera shutter button, this ain't the app for you. It has odd settings which do not correspond to the settings on the phone camera. Truly a mystery as to why this app exists.
★☆☆☆☆Sreekant Chillara· Jan 9, 2019
Why do I have to pay twice to download the app on my phone and watch? Also, I'm not able to install the app on my watch. Fossil gen 4 Q Hr I can't even apply for a refund, as it keeps throwing a server error
